Notes


Balanced Equation
type of Reaction
C10H8 + 12 O210 CO2 + 4 H2O
Combustion (because it has oxygen on the left, CO2, and H2O on the right
8 Fe + S88 FeS
Synthesis (because it puts many things into one)
2 H2O2 H2 + O2
Decomposition (because it is one thing breaking down into many)
Mg + 2 H2OMg(OH)2 + H2
Single Replacement (One of the reactants looses stuff to the other)
Pb(NO3)2 + 2 KI PbI2 + 2 KNO3
Double Replacement (both reactants switch stuff with each other)
